Lovely little hotel on the outskirts of Cefalu. Excellent location as quiet but only 15 mins walk into town. The pool area is exceptional, very clean with plenty of sun loungers. It never felt too busy. The bar area served plenty of drinks and snacks and a great selection of food in the breakfast buffet. Staff were also incredibly friendly.
A little dated in places, but this hotel is not pretending to be a 5 star resort. The bed was a little hard for my liking but that is all I can say.

Good location within walkable distance to the town, beach just across the road so you can actually make the most of the sea and the pool, our partial sea view room had a very nice view of the town & beautiful sunrises. Good on site bar & restaurant offers lunch and dinner but we only had breakfast and it was ok. The staff were friendly and helpful, especially the lady at the breakfast. All in all, a good hotel away from the main hustle of the town, could be a good spot to reset after exploring the area.
I found the car parking a bit pricey - 15 euros a day even for the hotel guests. Also, we did not realise that there was some sort of open air night club right next door to the hotel so we were in for a treat on a Saturday night into the early hours of Sunday - did not bother us much, but might be an issue if you are a light sleeper.

The sea view is AMAZING. ONLY for this i would already come back. But the staff were super Nice from the reception to cleaning lady to the staff of the restaurant. Everything clean and comfortable, restaurant food very Nice and Nice price vs the restaurants in city historical center. You have the beach just seconds away on front of the hotel door. You have parking .. all perfect.
The downsize is that you are kind of 15 minutes walking to city center but for me totally worth it as it is quieter place to BE and you can really relax.

It was very reasonable price for October. The hotel was a nice 3 stars hotel, it was not a fashionable hotel but we felt very comfortable(because im very picky when it comes to comfort). our pool/mountain view room and balcony was amazing. The breakfast was very good. The staff was friendly. The hotel has a private beach but also there is a free beach in the beginning so u need to pay for the private beach only if u need a sunbed and umbrella. The beach is just across the road and it has a water for to wash your feet/body. Grocery store deco where u can find a meal to eat as well is 500m away. The hotel has a restaurant and bar. The location was amazing. Nothing was far away from this hotel.
1.Early checkout(10:30) and late checkin(15:00) 2.no luggage storage room-they offer you to leave your luggage by the bar where nobody follows it and anyone from the street can just come avoiding the reception desk and steal your luggage 2.the water in the pool in October was freezing cold. It was warmer in the sea 3. towel they rent out for 3€ 4.the private beach could have been for free for the guests in my opinion In general it was a nice hotel

Great sea view room and the hotel is at the quiet end of the seafront so very peaceful. The staff were friendly and helpful. The pool, though quite cool in October, is huge and deep so you can really get those lengths in! Set in a lovely garden. An honest no frills family hotel. Great buffet breakfast with loads of choice.
The bathroom is a bit dated and the balcony small only enough for 2 chairs. But for 3 star hotel in this price range this is acceptable. The good things far outweigh the negatives. It is at the far end of the seafront so be prepared for a 20 minute very pleasant stroll on the flat into the old town.

Great pool, 20m. Breakfast was plentiful. The staff were great. I paid my bill the night before I left and mentioned I was leaving early. When I checked out the following morning they had prepared a packed breakfast for me to eat on my journey. The hotel was a 20 minute stroll from town. The walk is flat along the beachfront. The distance from town meant that there were no disturbances from bars and discos. Room service came every day.

Great location in Cefalu, which is an amazing place to stay. Right next to the beautiful beach and only a 15 minute walk into town. Lovely swimming pool, good size and plenty of sun loungers with umbrellas to use. Also private beach area available to hotel residents. Room good size with small balcony overlooking pool and sea. Very friendly staff and good breakfast choices. Secure parking available at a charge of 15 euros per day.
All positive, great value for money.

Hotel bar open 24/7. Buffet breakfast was limited but ok. Private beach opposite. 10-15 minute walk to town.
Still have to pay for a sunbed on the private beach, even though it is for hotel guests only. The pool does not have a shallow end, so not really suitable for kids. Whilst the walk to town isn't too far (10-15 minutes), there isn't really any shade, so it isn't the best for young kids, and there isn't really much en route. Had to pay for towels and would have to pay each time you changed them.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Hotel Tourist in Cefalu, Sicily, and I can confidently say it was a truly remarkable experience. From the moment I arrived until the day of my departure, every aspect of my stay exceeded expectations. The location of this charming hotel is undoubtedly one of its strongest assets. Situated just a stone's throw away from the beach, Hotel Tourist offers a breathtaking coastal backdrop that is nothing short of spectacular. The convenience of being so close to the beach allowed for leisurely walks along the shoreline and easy access to the crystal-clear waters of the Mediterranean. It's the perfect setting for a relaxing seaside vacation. Cefalu itself is a gem of a town in Sicily. Its quaint streets are lined with picturesque buildings, bustling cafes, and charming boutiques. The town exudes an irresistible charm that is both inviting and heartwarming. Exploring Cefalu was a true delight, and the hotel's central location made it easy to immerse oneself in the local culture and vibrant atmosphere. The hotel's pool was another highlight of my stay. It provided a refreshing respite from the warm Sicilian sun, and the surrounding garden area was beautifully landscaped, creating a serene oasis where I could unwind and soak in the peaceful ambiance. Whether you're looking to take a dip or simply relax by the pool with a good book, Hotel Tourist offers the perfect setting. What truly set Hotel Tourist apart, however, was the impeccable service and attention to detail. The staff was incredibly warm, welcoming, and always eager to assist with any request. Their knowledge of the local area, including restaurant recommendations and excursion options, greatly enhanced my stay and allowed me to make the most of my time in Cefalu. In summary, my stay at Hotel Tourist in Cefalu, Sicily, was a wonderful experience that I would highly recommend to anyone seeking a relaxing and memorable vacation.
Everything was wonderul.

I liked the sea view! This hotel has the best sea view in entire Cefalú. The staff at the breakfast were very friendly and helpful. The staff at the reception are also nice but the man in the morning shift could use more guest friendliness tips. The breakfast compared to italian breakfast was really good. The beach is rocky but this I knew from the beginning, so one can walk 10-15 minutes to the next sandy beach. I had the iron I needed and hot water whenever I wanted from the bar downstairs.
nothing actually..maybe the housekeeping could respect the "don't disturb" sign cause they always came in the room and sometimes woke me up from my nap to ask if I want the room cleaned. This needs improvement!
